Next week is O-Week, which means we’ve got special O-Week events lined up for you!

Kicking it off on Wednesday 15th, we’ll be holding a MADMAN-sponsored screening of Wolf Children from 6pm in Manning Clark Theatre 3!

Then on Friday, we’ll be holding a gaming night from 5pm until late in Moran G008/G009. There’ll be board games, video games and general nerding about, as well as free pizza at 6:30pm! On top of this, we’re holding a one-off Super Smash Bros. tournament in collaboration with our friends over at Games Capital with prize vouchers for the top places and free to enter!

Of course, everything is members only (we need to keep running somehow!) but you can sign up for membership at our stall on Market Day or at any of our events for only $10 for the year!

Also since our Semester 1 weekly screenings begin the following week, we have a brand-new lineup of great anime that you won’t want to miss, including a bunch sponsored by our friends at MADMAN and AnimeLab:

It’s nearing the end of the year, university’s finished and a lot of people are starting to think about putting up trees in their houses and covering them with shiny objects, or alternatively going… well, anywhere but Canberra.

HOWEVER:

Before this year comes to an end, we have one last special event: LASER Tag!

We’ll be hosting a laser tag event at Zone 3 this coming Wednesday, 7 December from 6:30pm. It’s $10 for members, though any non-member you might be dragging along will need to sign up before participating (for only $5).

Also, if anyone is free and/or interested, a group of us will be getting dinner in the food court at Westfield Belconnen at around 5pm to make sure we’ve got enough energy to last the night!

With the arrival of a new semester, we have an updated screenings lineup and a couple of Bush Week events!

On Wednesday, we have a special screening of the second Digimin Adventure Tri movie in Manning Clark Theatrette 4 with board games running simultaneously for those more game-oriented while on Friday we’ll be holding a special trivia night in the Copland Theatre! See https://www.facebook.com/events/1064218876961250/ for more information.

Meanwhile on the regular screenings side, most of the anime screened in first semester will be continuing on with some new anime mixed in! Here’s a summary of the schedule:

As we move into first semester, we’ve got a series of announcements to make.

First, next week is O-Week. For our O-Week events, we’ll be holding a special screening of Digimon Adventure Tri on Wednesday 10th in MCC T3 from 6pm, while on Friday we’ll be having a gaming and pizza night in Moran G007/G008 starting from 5pm.

Second, a new year brings a new executive committee. To elect the new exec, the AGM will be held on Friday March 4th starting at 5pm. We’re always on the look out for new exec members, so if you’re interested in helping the society to run smoothly, talk to me or any of the exec and we’d be happy to tell you about the positions and their roles.

Finally, it’s also time to announce our first semester screenings lineup! For more information you can see our screenings page (http://anuags.org.au/screenings/).

With university exams coming up soon, we’re getting ready to begin our holiday screenings, so here’s the official announcement for what we’ll be playing!

On Wednesdays, we’ll be continuing My Love Story, Durarara and Mushishi while adding the comedy Yamada and the Seven Witches and supernatural drama Natsuyuki Rendezvous to replace Trigun and Terror in Resonance respectively.

On Fridays, for the most part we’ll be having double episodes of rom-com Nisekoi followed by psychological/mystery Death Parade and triple episodes of magic/action anime Tokyo Ravens, though I’ve slotted in the hilarious Carnival Phantasm for good measure due to it being a spin-off of the Fate series.

I’ve attached an image below for the schedule and I’ve tried to be as clear as possible, though I apologise for anything confusing – feel fee to contact me for clarification. Also, because of the weird structure of the holidays and our delays in August it turned out to be a bit of a Frankenstein’s monster… Anyway, we’ve got some good anime lined up for these holidays, so look forward to it!

As a last note, for the two weeks from the 2nd to the 15th of November the MCC is having wifi installed so for the screenings around then we’ll be having our screenings elsewhere. The location isn’t confirmed yet, though I’ll let you guys know as soon as it’s sorted out.

I said a couple of weeks ago we’d be holding an OGM soon, and this is the official announcement.

The OGM will be held on Friday 25th of September at 6pm, or 10 days from this post. We would like as many active members who are able to come as possible, as it will involve a couple of rather important matters. Screenings will still be on, and the meeting shouldn’t go for more than half an hour to an hour.

The main matters to be discussed are officially voting for a new president and our response to complaints about under-18s being subject to inappropriate material and discussion. If anyone has any other matters they would like to raise, this is also an opportunity to do so.

Thanks everyone for your patience. I’m thrilled to announce that we are now
resuming events! Due to short notice we won’t be having the anime
screenings in the theatre tonight, though board gaming, video gaming and
socialising will recommence tonight and screenings from next week from
where we left off. We’ll also be holding an OGM (date TBA) to discuss some
matters that have come up, so keep your ears peeled for that.

On Wednesday, we’ll have a special screening of the Trigun: Badlands Rumble movie commencing at 6:00pm in Mannin Clarke Theatre 3 followed by pizza at 7:30pm, with board games and a Weiss Schwarz workshop outside the theatre the whole time.

On Friday, we’ll be hosting our now traditional laser tag night! It kicks off at 5:15pm at Zone 3 Belconnen, and costs $10 per person.

And of course, starting next week we’ll begin our second semester screenings! You can check out our schedule at our screening page (http://anuags.org.au/screenings/)

So there’s plenty to look forward to! We look forward to seeing you at our events this semester!
